Everything is going so well. The thought of my impending departure from kenya, less than one month, is making me very sad. Two of the other interns are leaving this week and I cannot even believe this trip has gone by so quickly. My project last week, a week long summer camp for kids, went really well. For a treat we went to Jinja, Uganda for the weekend. It was the most amazing weekend I have had to far. We went white water rafting on the nile and mountain biking.
White water rafting was the most amazing thing I have done so far in life. For my first time rafting, we went over 4 class 5 rapids, and we managed to flip on the first rapid. We spent the day with the excitment of the rapids, and the relaxation of swimming lazily in the currents of the nile. The scenery was more beautiful than any of the flims or images I have seen of the nile. I fell in love with rafting.
We also went out dancing for one of the interns 21st birthdays. It was one of my latest nights in East Africa so far, coming home around 4 am.
We went mountain biking down to the falls we had flipped on the day before, and took a boat through the source of the nile. I managed to get an iced latte which made me so excited.
I am hoping to go back to Jinja very very soon. It is amazing place. My life is currently very very good.
